SOLLM QUIS VICARS , FALSUM AUDSAT L 0 ND 0 N, • MONDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1810. Letters and Papers have been received from Hol land, which state,, that the greatest consternation - prevails throughout that country, in consequence of its approaching anne*ion to France. It is quite absurd to talk of BUONAPARTE'S only annexing the Coasts Of Holland .to France, and leaving the re mainder an independent State. When he takes possession of the whole Maritime Frontier of Hol land, he takes .every thing. Patient as the people, of Holland have some years been under the ,ty ranny of France, it is hardly to be expeaed that they will be roused into anion by this -new outrage. Many of the private Letters, however, state, that the dissatisfaction among the people is general, and that it it not im probable that in'some places they may attempt an unavailing res;stance. BtJONAPARTE appears to have been perfealy aware of the dislike of the people of Holland to be incorporated with France, for he has taken extraordinary means to terrify Chem into sub mission. The large bodies of troops that are now marching into Holland are not sent ,for the purpose of defending it against England, bat they are sent to take possession of it as a conquered country, snd to maintain it against a discontented population. Al though under the Government of Louis BUONAPARTE, t tell neither enjoyed freedom as individualq, nor independence as a people, yet there was something' so mild in Louis's . disposition, and . he manifested so uniform a desire to- soften the rigout. of BUONA“ PARTE'R comtherciaL regulations, that the people kikcxl him, and were at least comparatively satisfied under his Government. Louis; it appears, has given an additional proof that he merits the attach inent of the people, by refusing to comply with his brother's order to surrender his right to the Throne cif Holland. It is, we admit, absurd, in speaking of these people, to talk of their right to a:Tl4one, but as between Louts and BuoNAPAßTE.theright of the former is good, and he has' refused to.resign 'it, the consequence has been that he has been placed under tin arrest in the Palace of hi's mother at Paris. Orders have been sent down to Portsmouth and to Plymouth for all the line-of-battle ships at these ports immediately to proceed to Cadiz. :the ships from the former port werelo sail under the command of Admiral PICKMURE, and from the latter under Admiral DIXON. , No furiber intelligence had reached the Admiralty respeding the Toulon Fleet when this Paper was put to Press. It seems as if Lord WELLINGTON was destined to be an obje& of persecution in this country, while he is abroad risking his life to promote its interests and to elevate its charaaer. A motion is to be made in the Common Council respeaing Lord WELLINGTON'S Pension, and the Campaigns in Spain and Portugal will of course be discussed with profound skill. It must, however, be some conso lation to Lord WELLINGTQN, and to his friends, to know, that though his military operation-s may not meet with the approbation of such profound tacti cians, such skilful Generals, as Mr. CALCRAFT and Mr. WAITSIMAN, that every military man is loud -in his praise, and that every officer and every sol dier in his army not only feels the Warmest attach ment to his person, but places the most implicit confidence in his abilities. •It is really lament able to see the spirit of party carried to such a height, as that one of the best and bravest Officers in the British service should be d a ily a tt ac k e d i n hi s absence, merely because his family have given their support to the present Min stets. That the Afoul leur should attack him, is not surprising; that BIONAPARTR should pour out his vulgar inveaive against a man who had defeated his best troops and his most skilful Generals wherever he has _met them, and . with an. immense interiority of force, does not astonish us ;—but . that Englishmen can be found so perverted by party spirit, as to sacrifice every generous feeling, to give up eVery proud sentiment of national honour, to endea vour to detraa from the glory, atid blest the laurels acquired by British skill S and gallantry, is indeed a subje& of astonishment as well as of the deepest re gret. Yesterday morning his MAJESTY, Princesses Au- CUSTA and SOPHIA, accompanied by Lady ELY, Mrs. DORMER, and General MANNERS, went to St. George's Chapel, Windsor, and heard Divine Service. Friday morning his MAJESTY, Princeces Atr- GUSTA and Sornin, accompanied y ihe Earl of HARCOURT, Lady ELY, G:•ne3•als MANNERS and ErrzitoY, and Colonel TAYLOR, took an airing on horseback in Windsor Park. The Dukes of YORK and KENT arrived at Wind sor on Friday, on a visit to their MAJESTIES. The Doctors who attend the Princess AMELIA hake a consultation in general upon - the state of her Royal Highness every Friday. They, however, did not attend last Friday, but did on .- Ihe were present :—Sir HENRY HAL FORD, Bart. Drs. DIJNDAS, BAYLEY, and POPE. His MAJESTY is.expeaed in town on Wednes ray, to hold a private Letee and Privy Council at the Queen's Palace. The Gazelle of Saturday contains an Order in * Council, dated the 7th February, for prolonging to the tst Decembor next, the allowance contained in the Orders in Council of the 12th April and tab August, 1809, and loth January, 1810, for the importation into the West India Islands of staves, lumber, live stock, and provisions (excepting beef, pork, anu butter), by neutral vessels, till the Ist December, 1810, and empowering the Goverruirs of the several Islands to extend the period of such importation till the lst December, 1811, or till six months after the signing of a definitive peade—the following duties being chargeable'upon such of the foregoing articles as may be the produce of the United States of America, viz. For every quintal of dried or salted cod or' ling, 2s. 6d. Sterling, and for shads, mackerel, salmon, &c in proportion.

Horses, neat cattle, or other live stock, for every tool. va. lue, tel. The above permission, duties, &c. may be varied or re. yoked, after six months notice to that elfi:d being given in the Gazette. The private letters from Holland. inform us, that . the deCree tbr confi , ;cating coloniai and neutral pro perty is most rigorously and generally enforded, and that many personS have by its operation been 4ilready reduced to the uttnost state of distress. A letter was received in Edinburgh on. Tuesday f►otn an officer in the 61st regiment of 'foot, who was wounded and taken prisoner in the battle of Talavera, dated Verdun, tst January. It states, that . in the journeft frOrn - Madrid - to that pla&e, they bad experienced very good treatment, and that the offi cers had waggons 'provided to carry' t hem as far as Bayonne—alter which they travelled in the mail and diligences at their own expend. He is allow ed a passport to go as far as he chases, provided he return before the gates are shut in the vening. Several line-of-battle ships, under orders to pro ceed from Portsmouth to the Downs, were on Fri day countermanded, and will, it is supposed, be sent to Cadiz to assist in the defence, or rather the eva cuation of that place. A considerable number of vessels are arrived in the River, from France, Flanders, and Holland.— The Master of one of then, which Jett Ostend on Wednesday evening last, mentions, that a report was prevalent there, at the time of his sailing, that BUONAPARTE had left. Parts for Spain on Sunday last. NAVAL NEWS. HALIFAX, DEC. 13.— JORDAN, the pirate, who ran away with the schooner Three Sisters, whilst on her voyage from Gaspee,- in the Bay of Chaleur, Lower Candia, was executed in November last, pursuant to the sentence of a Special Court of Piracy, held agreeable to ALI of Parliament for hold ing Courts of this nature in his Majesty's Provinces and Colonies.
